IMAGING SYSTEMS FOR FACIAL DETECTION, LICENSE PLATE READING, VEHICLE OVERVIEW AND VEHICLE MAKE, MODEL AND COLOR DETECTION

摘要

A system includes a camera defining an optical axis and a field of view defined about the optical axis. An illuminator is mounted offset from the optical axis and directed to illuminate at least a portion of the field of view, wherein the illuminator is operatively connected to the camera to provide illumination during an image capturing exposure of the camera. An image processer is operatively connected to the camera and includes machine readable instructions configured to receive image data representative of an image captured with the camera, perform facial detection to detect at least one face in the image, perform license plate detection to detect at least one license plate in the image, and to provide a vehicle overview image.
